we ruled out dropped scales, pearls from pearl scale, can't be chipped off sinster glass, i dun't have them. i took these 2 pieces from my 2ft tank.

some of the ideas that pop by are
1) broken shells from the salts we used
2) some unwanted things in the pellets they eat
3) unabsorbable stuff the fish spit out
4) some unwanted things in the Frozen Blood worms

I've that things now & then on my tank floor as well, curious at first but I've since concluded it to be goldfish teeth since goldfish change their teeth regularly. funny but thats my guess.

Me too! Saw that a few times in my tank. I at first thought it is the silicone gel dropping off. Then I press it and it feels dam hard like stone. Some kind of bone. Maybe Max is correct to say it is the teeth.

I vote for things in the salt. The idea of Dracu-chu or Ranchula is too scary for my taste. happydance.gif

I use fine salt for my tank and usually dissolve the salt before I add in my fishes. So it is unlikely that it is salt. yes.gif

It's during water change that I found these too. It's very hard and white just like teeth. I belive it's the goldfish teeth. I'm keeping ranchus only leh. After spawning, can see 1-2 at the bottom of the tank too. Can experts verify that?
